Welcome Back to School!

HELP has been busy over the summer months....we completed the equipment purchases for our commercial kitchen and have chosen the location for our community garden!

HELP is proud to welcome Chrysalis School to our family!
 
Additionally, HELP is now producing meals under the National School Lunch Program! These subsidies allow us to continue to provide exceptional meals to all students in our schools. Free and Reduced Price meals are available to qualifying families and full price meals continue to be offered at $2.50.

HELP produces and delivers meals to our participating schools daily. We remain committed to using the highest quality fresh, whole foods mimimally processed and prepared in our own kitchen each day. HELP's meals exceed the 2005 Dietary Guidelines. Each lunch offers a minimum of 2 servings of whole grains,2 servings of fruits and vegetables, and 2 servings of proteins. Treats are fresh baked and are low-fat and low-sugar. We are committed to keeping High Fructose Corn Syrup out of our lunches.

We use organic ingredients as much as possible and are expanding the use of locally grown produce through our school gardens and HELP's garden, greenhouse, and orchards.

How it works:
Parents order directly from HELP one month in advance. They choose one of 6 entree offerings which change each month. HELP's chef chooses and prepares the sides which change each day and include whole fruits, veggies, fresh salads, and baked treats like carrot-coconut-orange muffins, and chocolate zuchini brownies. Lunches are prepared fresh each morning by our chef and her staff and delivered to our schools just in time for lunch each day.

Some of our most popular entree choices include:

Peanut Butter & Jelly-Fresh whole-fruit preserves & natural peanut butter on 100% whole grain bread.

Chicken & Rice-Grilled chicken breast, carrots, onion, & brocolli on a bed of organic brown rice with a light teriyaki glaze.

Turkey Wrap-Deli turkey breast, cheddar cheese & lettuce in a 100% whole wheat tortilla.
